Looks like this is going to be an epic battle. There's probably going to be more than one epic battle in this movie. This movie will be engorged with epic. Did I forget to say this will be epic?

>Hmm. Cap's missing his helmet, and Thor has no armour, >cape, or sleeves?

They´re fighting Maxwell Smart´s villain Sauvage, who destroys clothes with his NUDE BOMB.

Maybe those are Evans and Hemsworth's stunt doubles? Or maybe Skrulls...hmmm...
And I literally screamed when I saw the third pic. :D

Think the cape-less Thor is one of the stunt choreographers and they are mapping out the fight scene for the two Chris'. Might give all these pics a miss from now on as I can slowly see a story line being revealed shortly.

And no, I don't think that is Scarlet Johansen with the coffee, unless she's wrapped and been eating nothing but doughnuts ever since!!

Ryan Reynolds didn't NEED CGI to suit up as Green Lantern. But they used it anyway. And i believe the Kree are 7 foot tall as well as wear armors. Those might be hard to come by and CGI is a great way around it. The Chitauri would have to have been a part of Cap's film yet they weren't. And the Skrulls are more well known. There is no reason what so ever to chose the Chitauri. I still say it's the KREE because the rumor is that the Skrulls are only hinted at yet we are dealing with an alien invasion none the less. The Kree would also establish a cosmic hero more than any other threat and a female one at that which is very rare and sought after from the public. And of all the directors in the business, Joss Whedon LOVES strong female protagonists, he spent the better part of his life working on one. Make mine Ms. Marvel!

superotherside - 8/19/2011, 6:44 AM
very cool! remember this may not be only Cap and Thor standing back to back... Iron Man may be put in later...

also does he have armor on his arms or not? I don't particularly care... I personally liked the sleeves-less costume though after seeing it... kinda hope he wears the sleeves-less throughout the film...
